Sure. You could also call "ntpdate $MYDC" prior to the join of course. The point of setting the time before the join (using net or ntpdate) is just about to make the join happen at all :) Then once sucessfully joined to AD, having offered a checkbox [x] Adjust system time from authentication domain controller would be just perfect! Is that still doable? The only point that worries me a bit is to have that DC ip statically in /etc/ntp.conf afterwards where we can't update it easily. BTW: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/deploy/confeat/... points out that this (use of ntp) is exactly what Windows clients do. So we should as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
